Roshe's and chukkas are the flyknit shoes that are good reps . Been getting into rep sneakers for a while now

Yeah I'm not big into shoes. I'm pretty cheap when it comes to workout shoes. Been wearing gen Adidas for a bit I bought on sale. So I just searched Flyknit and saw a pair for around $40CAD which look nice. Have you purchased them? I'll check out the Chukkas. Don't know the popular Nike brands though.

I bought flyknit air max and flyknit chukkas. Chukkas are still in the mail. The air max are OK. I had gen and you can tell a difference, not so much by appearance but by feel and how the flyknit looks.

There are many reviews of the rep roshes and chukkas, which all are positive from my experience.

Start with Roshes because they are almost half price of chukkas, see if you like them and then try other pairs :)

Do people around here trust them with their credit card?

With the way credit card companies work now......even in the event of a hacking of fraud charges....one quick call and its all taken care of. Im not too worried.

Is funny you ask that question, because Im looking at my credit card statement and I see that I was charged 3 TIMES for the same order. I messaged the seller, if he doesnt get back to me within 2 days im calling the credit card company. Has this happened to anyone else?

I'm not sure how much these shoes are in-store, but I can't imagine them being over $120 CAD for a pair. I've seen some sellers offering Nike's for upwards of $100 on Ali. If these are rep, they're a ripoff. If these are gen, I'd rather just buy them in-store to ensure I'm GETTING gen shoes and for the instant satisfaction.

Assume all are fake. I imagine the seller pays aliexpress for every sale he does. So a lot of sellers put up stuff for high prices and if it never sells its no problem. Roshes should be 30-40USD on ali if I remember correctly.

Yup, the pair I'm wearing right now were approx. $30 something Canadian each. That's about the highest I'll go for rep shoes. After that, I might as well go to my local Sport Chek and buy a real pair on sale.

Anyone got a link to a LV card holder? In Chequered blue/gray?

How do you find things on Aliexpress? So hard to find branded things

Yes they are, they are seriously good. Got 3 pairs so far - check out the Flyknit ones or the hyperfuse ones. Those are a bit more at around $35 USD.

I bought a pair for my girl though, and they send her mens size 8 instead of womens size 7. :unsure:

Yeah the nikes are spot on size wise using their conversion ( U.S. To EU) , I'm pretty pi$$ed I paid top dollar just recently for some air max 90's - probably made in the same factory ...

Had my 1st dabble with ali...

Got two love bracelets, one ladies standard bracelet, one ladies with diamonds. Shipping by HK post and took just over a week to UK. Pretty impressed...

are these orders all "signature required"? I'm never home during day, so going to post office is a PITA!
